What Kind of Seoul Massage Helps With a Stiff Lower Back?

The right massage style depends on the cause — stiffness from long hours of sitting calls for a different approach than muscle fatigue after exercise. For posture-related stiffness, a full-body Seoul Swedish massage that loosens everything up tends to work well, while post-workout soreness often responds better to a firmer, sports-massage-style approach. Since the lower back is a sensitive area, it's important to clearly describe the exact location and intensity of discomfort before the session — and if a disc issue or other condition is suspected, seeing a doctor should come before booking a massage.
